one life...

Life is a tragedy for those who feel, and a comedy for those who think --- La Bruyere

I came across this quote today on some website and I really started wondering if it was true.
Does life become a tragedy for people who just emote and is it really a comedy for those who think and laugh and more importantly are able to laugh at themselves and the idiosyncrasies of life?

Probably true , probably not. Still in the quest of evidence.

ability to laugh at oneself is the best way not get into the trap of taking life too seriously!

Let me paraphrase for you the meaning of life by using some quotes from "amrutvel" by VS Khandekar.
"to see a dream, to nurture it, to give your everything to make it true and then if unfortunately if the dream is shattered like a toy of glass by the cruel blows of destiny, then to walk on that shattered glass with bleeding feet towards another dream is the true nature of human mind". what else does Ayn Rand say?
